[SixClub] new general ticket. and XTALS

[Bob Royal]

Thanks for the input!
I'm looking for more xtals but did't want to land in the middle of a CW 
calling freq. or right where fast action is the norm. Right next door 
would be just fine...... Been trying to work 50.4 AM but have yet to 
make a contact from here. I'll keep trying till I do though..... Have 
boatanchors will transmit whether the propagation likes it or not!
